Subject: Open Sound System v4.0 announced

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                        Open Sound System v4.0 Released.

CULVER CITY, CA, March 15, 2007: 4Front Technologies is announcing the 
availability of Open Sound System (OSS)
version 4.0 for Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, Open Server6 and UnixWare7.

Open Sound System is a cross platform audio architecture that provides 
drivers for most consumer and professional
audio devices and comes with an API that allows applications to be 
simply recompiled on any of the supported
operating systems.


New Features:

  o New and improved transparent Virtual Mixer engine
     - Allows up to 16 applications to share the same "real" audio
       device.
     - Supports recording and full duplex in addition to playback.
     - Ability to mix stereo and multichannel audio streams up to
       7.1/192Khz/32bit.
     - Supports full 24 bit range without loss of precision during
       internal computations.
     - mmap() support for games like DoomIII and Quake4.
     - Each application has its own independant volume controls.
     - Supports loop back recording.

  o Full Solaris Audio Device Architecture (SADA) emulation on Solaris so
    that legacy Solaris audio apps can run on Open Sound System drivers.

  o Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) Library emulation support so
    that popular ALSA apps (the ones that use the ALSA library interface)
    can run on Open Sound System.

  o 100% backwards compatibility for Open Sound System (OSS) v3 API.

  o 64bit internal processing guarantees audio fidelity and precision if
    the audio data needs to be converted.

  o New device enumeration and mixer API makes it very easy to manage
    devices programatically.

  o Uses up to date native kernel interfaces and installation methods
    will enable OSS to keep up with changes to the operating systems for
    the forseeable future.

  o Updated drivers for all devices supported in the older OSS v3.9x
    versions. Support for obsolete ISA bus devices has been finally
    withdrawn from Open Sound System v4.0.


The virtual mixer in Open Sound v4.0 will give the user multiple virtual 
full duplex multichannel audio streams. It is possible to run a full
duplex VOIP session, view a DVD in full 5.1 surround sound and play
popular video games all at the same time without any complicated device
setup and configuration. Open Sound v4.0 brings unmatched device and
system management capabilities that make it ideal and easy to setup in 
virtualized environments.
